What this does not say
Quoted verbatim from the section’s warnings field, exactly as the API returns it. They are not translated: a translation would show something other than what your response actually contains.
- Strategic noise mapping of state/county roads (rød sone Lden ≥ 65 dB, gul sone ≥ 55 dB); municipal roads and façade-level values are not included.
- calculated_year is the prognosis year of the noise model (T-1442 mapping is computed for a forecast year, typically 2040 for roads), not the year of a measurement or of publication.
- Straight-line EPSG:25833 distances from the address point to the feature; not travel distance. Source features are imported as published, with their own accuracy and update cadence; updated_at is our import time.
Fields
2 of 10 fields are value fields — the ones that decide whether a record actually says anything. The rest are context: identifiers, codes and timestamps. Fields marked “open” return values to anonymous callers; the rest require a key.
